Does this forum use HTTP Secure (HTTPS) to encrypt users' login information? I've never noticed https:// or any SSL certificate information when I've logged in so I just wanted to ask. Maybe I'm missing something? Thanks!

Thanks for the info and the tip! I doubt anyone would want to hack into my TulsaNow account, but I feel it's more important than ever to do what I can to keep my personal data safe. Just today I got an email from a company informing me that some "unauthorized third parties" breached their server and obtained an listing of email addresses—mine included. I hope I don't get a bunch of Viagra offers now. lol
